Marks Tey
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Marks Tey is a village in Essex located several miles west of Colchester.
The village has a railway station on the Great Eastern Main Line, and is a junction for the Sudbury Branch Line to Sudbury. It is in a collection of villages called the Teys consisting of Great Tey and Little Tey. Its main features include a village hall built in 1993 on the fields intersecting the A12 and A120, these fields have also in the past decade had a children's play park and a skateboard park built on them. The skate park project, started in 2001, mimicked that of the local Colchester council project, whereby council members worked in co-operation with local youths to design and erect a facility for them. Marks Tey Parish Council chose local youths Ciaran Sainty and Ryan Seymour, after many meetings, to design the park using equipment designed by Playdale. A total of £47,000 was spent on the project.
